just test drove a EVO GSR in CT

a saleman from the dealership in milford CT called me and said i could come down and take a evo x for a test drive, even though what i want is a MR he was still ok with me driving it

what i drive now is really really fast, i have a C55 amg, the evo doesnt have the raw power but its still really quick, mid range rpm power felt good, turns felt really solid, i really really liked the car
out of respect for whoever ends up buying the car i resisted beating the snot out of it even though it sounds like they have a little already

im very happy with my preorder of an MR, just hope they make it here soon

they have 2 red GSRs, the one i drove has the big spoiler, and keyless, no navi though

i -think- there both for sale, i think me and 1 person were the only preorders they had

they said they sold a blue GSR to a girl yesterday, i saw the SRT4 she traded in

In a straight line yes, but not when you throw twistes and turns in there

Does the Evo X have a lot of electronics? Is there a ridiculous sensor for everything?
